no hassle

We have booked to stay at the cheyenne hotel, DLP. I was advised to take the TGV from CDG airport and that it takes you right into the resort but its fully booked for the date we go. Could you please tell me the next best and quickest option. We are travelling with 2 young children!

When we used to fly before the eurostar was built, we always caught the Disney shuttle bus from the airport.(VEA) Tickets were included in our package back then, but you can pay on board.



The shuttle bus took us to the hotel we were staying in,but I%26#39;m not sure if they still do this, or drop you at the hotel bus stops by the railway station at Disney.



If you land at a busy time, there may be a queue for the bus, depending how many flights have arrived with Disney passengers.



When we arrived in the summer holidays once, the queue was very long, and we waited an hour before a bus arrived. We were lucky and got on, but I complained to the driver about the wait and he called for another bus to come for the others.



You could check out the queue first, to see how many are waiting.



If you can afford it, the best and quickest is obviously a private car transfer.

You say you have 2 young children. Assume you are aware that the Cheyenne has bunk beds?
